Abstract:As traffic volumes increase in Florida, managed lanes are being increasingly used. Managed
lanes include those for which multiple passengers (high occupancy vehicle, or HOV, lanes) are
required or access is permitted based on high occupancy and/or paying a toll (high occupancy/
toll or HOT lanes). To date, systematic methods to analyze safety on HOV/HOT lanes in terms
of expected crash frequency have not been developed. Crash frequency provides an objective
view of the safety of an existing roadway, and it can also be used to predict the crash
incidence and severity based on roadway
geometry. This information is useful in
planning and design.
